Either an N172 Frank Hankinson (to complete my NJ subset) or an N172 Taylor Shafer (to make up for a blockhead move I made years ago that I will likely never live down).

I vividly remember those "America's Toughest Want List" ads from my early days. They really caught my attention and would lead to visions of amazing cards we all dream about. RIP Bruce.

N338-2 Getzien "in PSA 7 or higher" of course.

1893 Just So Jimmy McAleer in NM/MT only.

I once sold Bruce an early Baseball Magazine that he was looking for on BST. He seemed to have quite a run of those. RIP

THAT's FUNNY :-) I'll look again for the link for the clean one - unsure of size at moment or even if I can find it. I really would want to find one I can put with my udder stuff. Thanks for taking it the way you did - takes a real gentleman. Nice pres. BB club BTW. In the mid-1990's I wrote a couple of small articles about the fact the bodies were those of the Ginter female workers - the cigarette rolling girls - the blackstocking nine - Polka Dot Nine - call them what you want. Don Flanagan swore to me he had seen/sold some sort of contract relating to one of the teams. Frank Keetz (BB trade card cataloger/show promoter) had like 13?15? - have his note he sent from 1999(?) somewhere. He insisted on calling them trade cards. He wouldn't listen to me (as if anyone does). I tried collecting the set as well as any CDV's and cabinets of women BB players back then because I didn't really want to collect what everyone else does - just some form of it. It wasn't satisfying enough because there were so few examples of any of it. Great set on many levels and some are scarcer than others - I think because of demand for certain ones over supply - although there are very few of these to be had in the marketplace and it would have to be pure conjecture. Never heard of a complete set but who knows. I sold a single one on Feebay a few months ago........
